Ecological Systems and Devices Annotation << Back Biosorption of lead, cadmium and copper ions by sedimentary Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeasts A.M. Nasimov, S.D. Aronbaev Bbiosorbtion possibilities of sedimentary brewing yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae in relation to Pb+2 , Cd+2, Cu+2 have been studied. It is established that maximum sorbtion the capacity of the sorbent from barmy bark cells contains 125,0; 34,48; 25,6 mg/g for lead, cadmium and copper, accordingly. Expediency of application solid biosorbents on a basis Сa-alginate gel immobilized of cellular yeast bark for removal heavy metals from sewage is shown. Key words: biosorption; heavy metals; isoterms of adsorption; yeast. E-mail: diron51@mail.ru Pp.: 3-7
